I am not knocking him, I love the guy.
But, during concerts, what is that thing he does when he like walks in a straight lines, turns walks in a line again.......Hard to explain but do you know what I mean?
If you been to a show you gotta know.....its like a Rain Man thing? LOL

he's playing guitar like a mad mother fucking genius. have you tried running and playing guitar at the same time? its tough, that's all i can say.

I like his "v-split jumps" and "power chords leaps" like on the Letterman premiere of "Grievance" and "Comatose" from the post letterman 2006 webacast...

Ya know, Stone used to be like this from 1992-1994...

Then he retired to become a accountant, it seems..

Its almost like they did a Freaky Friday, cause Mike was much more reserved on stage in the olden days of the previous milennium.

When I play on stage I tend to move around. I like to go up to everyone im playing with and dance next to them. I make my rounds I go to the singer then the other guitarist (if there is one) then the bassist and then I go to the drummer and tend to stand on the bass drum and dance and play. It makes being on stage more fun. Im sure thats what mikes doing just running around and having fun.

mike pointing to the crowd is nice

you know I have been noticing that on some of the videos I have seen on youtube; that thing he does with his neck. It's totally cool and I am sure a bit common, (used to keep time kind of?) but funny . I really like it when in the youtube misheard lyrics video, he takes his guitar and looks straight up in the sky while playing it. Does anyone else know what I mean?

Mike "fatneck" Mccready rocking out

i dont thenk adhd existed when i was little - i probably would have been a little lesser, but hyped up all the same :rolleyes:

i think its more my over active imagination simply taking over - the vacation idea sounds great - probably a good description.

how about when Mike gets his "WAH" on early in the set...

example: Boston 7/3/03.. Song #2 (Animal) ..

Mikey's searing wah, wah pedal screeches!

He started stomping on that pedal the whole night (even sprinted over to it at the end of "Crazy Mary"..you can hear it on the boot!)

Like he takes a hit from it to get juiced!

When Mike gets his WAH on... Look the F#ck out!

its going to be an epic show!

All I know is I wish I could get to that place too. It seems to be where he is at his best and nothing else is between him and what comes out of the amps. A direct line from his brain to the speakers.

yeah, adhd didn't really exist when I was a kid either; especially for us girls who were just "chatty Cathy's" or "wiggle worms" or "spacy" or "lazy" etc, you know. boys were usually on the ceilings when they had the condition and one use to have marker all over his hands.

but the mini vacation has come to me when I am listening to someone talk boring shit; when I am watching a movie with people that I don't want to watch the movie they are watching but am just there to be nice. And more times than I can remember.........lol

i like the jump and point....the 06 george show There is a part where Mike is just back to the crowd staring out into the open for like 2 minutes and than just jumps around and starts playing the crowd like he didnt ever stop...great shit
